Chapter 47 - Still Looking

During the lesson, Anne yawned countless times, her eyes were red and watery. Not to mention the wistful face with eye bags that were visible under the eyes. Anne\'s appearance really showed that she did not get enough sleep. Linda could only sympathize after seeing her friend\'s appearance. Until the last lesson came, Linda asked her friends who were sitting in front of them to sit close to each other so that the lecturer in front did not see if Anne was sleeping, the last two hours Linda had been Anne\'s bodyguard. She helped Anne got some sleep comfortably, Linda felt guilty after got Anne into trouble yesterday so she wanted to pay it back by helping Anne got some sleep during the class.

Finally, the two tense hours for Linda ended when the lesson was over. Everyone cheered up when the boring lesson was over. Linda, who was still sitting up next to Anne, leaned against the wall behind her, taking a deep breath. ??

"Thank God no one noticed it," Linda said quietly as she made a cross on her chest.

One by one the other students left the classroom, they rushed to the cafeteria to eat or continue other activities leaving Linda who was still looking after Anne since she was still asleep. Ten minutes after the bell rang, Anne finally opened her eyes slowly, but when she opened them she was surprised by a pair of Linda\'s eyes that stared at her without blinking right in front of her face so that she suddenly slumped back. Anne would fall if Linda did not grab her hand immediately.

"Linda, what are you doing? You almost give me a heart attack!!" screamed Anne loudly, clutching her chest.

"What am I doing? I should have said that to you!! You made me feel like I\'m in a marathon competition for almost two hours, my heart kept beating irregularly while keeping you sleeping in the middle of the lesson, do you think it\'s easy?" said Linda curtly.

Hearing Linda\'s words made Anne speechless, she then looked at the watch on her left hand and saw the deserted classroom. And soon a smile appeared on her face when she realized that she had apparently been asleep for almost two hours. She quickly hugged Linda who was in front of her, smiling broadly without guilt.

"I love you, Linda, thank you for looking after me. I love you Lindaaa ..." squealed Anne with joy.

"This is the first and last time I will watch you while you are sleeping in class, Anne. The next time it happens, I will not bother anymore and let the lecturer know that you sleep in class," said Linda coldly as she let go of Anne\'s hug.

"Hehehehe, I promise, I\'m sorry, Linda. I don\'t know why I really couldn\'t hold back my sleepiness, even though I\'ve slept a lot at night but this is the first time I can\'t help it," said Anne honestly, smiling broadly.

Crack

"Aawww," screamed Anne loudly when Linda hit her forehead with her hand.

"Don\'t get used to staying up late, you\'re still young, Anne. You\'ll get old quickly if you stay up late. Look under your eyes, it\'s very black. You\'re sloppy," said Linda fiercely since she got irritated.

"Yes, sorry, I will reduce my habit of staying late, Linda. Okay, let\'s go to the canteen. I\'m hungry," said Anne, trying to change the subject.

"You should treat me, watching you sleep in the class is a very expensive service," said Linda quickly.

Anne just laughed at Linda\'s words, she then tidied up her books into her bag and picked her up, and walked towards the exit following Linda who was standing by the door. The two of them then walked together to the canteen while laughing. Several students majoring in graphic design who was concentrating on working on their assignments for the competition held by the Connery Corporation looked fiercely at Anne and Linda. They felt disturbed by the sound of Anne and Linda\'s laughter, even though Anne and Linda were actually laughing in the hallway, not in the graphic design classroom.

"You girls don\'t have manners,"

"They think their voices are easy to listen to, why do they have to laugh like that,"

"It\'s annoying,"

"In what major they are in? Why don\'t they have manners like that?"

Some curses came out of the lips of the graphic design students who were annoyed by Anne and Linda, one of them even came out of the classroom to see who was laughing that hard.

"Who are they, Giana?" asked the most popular girl in the graphic design department named Isabel with a raised tone.

"Anne and Linda are fashion designer students," Giana answered quickly.

"Those two annoying girls, are really looking for trouble," said Isabel curtly.

"Actually, the annoying thing is that her name is Anne, she was kicked out of class yesterday by Mrs. Martha because she made a joke in class," Vivian, one of Isabel\'s friends, suddenly joined in the conversation.

"Oh, she is known to be a troublemaker? No wonder she doesn\'t have that kind of attitude. Don\'t mind them, then. Let\'s just say that the two girls are insignificant pests that must be destroyed, don\'t approach them because otherwise, we\'ll get into trouble too," said Isabel quickly as she folded her arms across her chest.

All of Isabel\'s friends nodded their heads slowly in response to Isabel\'s words, they then returned to focus on working on the competition that had to be submitted for one more week. Isabel was very eager to win the logo design competition this time, she wanted to be closer to Aaron Connery, the CEO of the best property company. Isabel started getting interested in Aaron because of his good looks and wealth, even when Isabel had a boyfriend who was known as a reputable cop in England. She just thought that the police salary was not enough for her so she decided to pursue Aaron this time. After rejecting Edward Cole, the campus prince one week ago, Isabel had now decided that she wanted to be Connery\'s mistress, her ultimate reason why she was eager to win the competition held by Aaron\'s company.

"I will definitely win, by taking advantage of these stupid kids, my way to get closer to Aaron is getting closer," said Isabel quietly as she looked at the laptop screen of one of her subordinates who was displaying an almost finished logo. They could send the logo to Connery Corporation once they finish adding colors and some background combinations.

In the cafeteria, Anna and Linda are seen enjoying their lunch heartily while discussing annoying things from the Netflix miniseries they were watching. They seemed more relax since they did not have any class for the day. Anne and Linda looked like they were enjoying their food deliciously. Not far from their seats, Edward was sitting with his men and his lover, Sarah, a professional model who started studying at UAL to get a degree. She was ashamed to be called a model who did not have a bachelor\'s degree, so she took a major at UAL and finally met Edward. It did not take long for her to get into a relationship with Edward.

"Aren\'t you hungry, Edward? Why you haven\'t eaten anything?" asked Sarah cutely.

"I\'m not hungry yet, baby," Edward lied to Sarah while smiling and occasionally glancing at Anne.

"You have to eat, I don\'t want you to get sick," said Sarah sulkily as she spooned up the spaghetti towards Edward\'s mouth.

Edward finally gave in, he opened his mouth and took Sarah\'s mouthful of spaghetti. Even though his body was beside Sarah, his soul was wandering around Anne. Since Linda\'s part-time work had almost arrived, they finally finished their meal and prepared to leave the canteen to head to the parking area. Edward got a little disappointed the seconds she saw Anne left the canteen area, he finished eating and wiped his mouth with a tissue, and reached for his cellphone to play a game.

"You don\'t have to drive me, Anne, I can take public transportation," said Linda over and over.

"Don\'t be stubborn, let\'s drive quickly, I\'ll take you there," said Anne quickly as she took Linda\'s hand.

Linda just smiled at Anne\'s words, she then got into Anne\'s car following Anne who was already in her seat. After Linda got into the car, Anne immediately drove away from the campus area to Linda\'s workplace. When Anne\'s car exited the campus area, a black Jeep Wrangler Rubicon driven by Jack entered the parking area. Jack got out of his car and stood up while staring at the art campus in front of him.

"If Aaron is cooperating with this campus, it means that this campus will have some clues about Anne\'s whereabouts," Jack said softly.
